My power ranking: SC -5 Pick: SC -2.5 (-120) ($360/$300)
I am going with South Carolina here as i think their defense will take this game over. I will say that i don't believe South Carolina has a ton of great victories, but they do have more quality wins than Nebraska. SC did beat Georgia (w/ Lattimore) and beat Vandy, Miss ST and Florida. Nebraska beat Michigan State (bad spot for MSU) and Penn State / OSU.
The SC defense can stop the run and i don't see Taylor Martinez passing on one of the best pass defenses in the country. So as long as they can bottle up the Nebraska running game and take care of the ball they should win.
My power ranking: OK ST -1 Pick: Stanford +4.5 ($330/$300)
I like Stanford here and grabbing the points. Both of these teams have great offenses with pro talent (Luck/Blackmon etc) but one thing stood out to me was how Stanford was good at keeping the ball away from opponents as OK ST scored fast and gave the opposition alot more plays. Stanford isn't a team you want to give more plays to.
My power ranking: Michigan St -3 Pick: Michigan ST +3.5 (-120) ($360/$300)
SEC bias here as i think on a neutral field that Michigan state has a great chance to cover IMO....Georgia beat the teams they should have beaten and lost to teams that are considered to be tough (Boise, LSU and S. Carolina). Michigan State lost to Wisconsin. Nebraska (off their win vs Wisconsin) and ND. But the loss to Wisconsin was by 3. Michigan ST is stout against the rush and can put up points on offense. Like them in a tight game.
My power ranking: Florida -3 Pick: Florida ML (-120) ($240/$200)
The only thing i worry about is turnovers for Florida.

georgia has the defense to shut down mich state. mich state has struggled against sec teams in bowl games 1-4 su all time.
florida a favorite? ohio state will run all day on the gators

I think just the opposite on Mich St. I think their D steps up and does what it does. Can hardly compare last year's game against Alabama in this position. Georgia is no Alabama, that's for sure. I'm sure they would've gotten trucked by Alabama too.
Agree with you on Ohio St.
